Love lost and friends found

In this poem I tried to encapsulate my feelings of loss, at yet another failed attempt at a relationship, but at the same time, giving thanks to a new found friend

I don't want to feel

I don't want to heal

I don't want to hurt

But it's hard 'cos I've been burnt

I'm feeling blue

So sad. So true

I feel like this more often

But this harsh blow, you help soften

You bring the rain

I so desperately need

You wash away this pain...

You're just what I need...

Though we were never meant to be

My broken heart, you helped mend

Though you mean so much to me

We were only meant to be friends

For you to be heard,

I leave these parting words

We'll be friends

To the very last end

Thank you, my friend.

Thank you

Author's Note

I can't say I'm particularly happy with this poem, but I'll let you decide, and offer up some words of advice, if you feel I need it.

CHANGES MADE: The italicised stanzas have been altered from the original. The fourth stanza matches the same pace and rhyming pattern of the others and the fifth stanza Has been shortened in an effort to maintain flow and pace. Also, I separated the second and third stanzas

Reviews

The flow was good, right up until the third stanza. I kinda wasnt feeling it there.
Apart from that I think it works well, the rhyming scheme worked well, although it isnt my thing personally. And of course, as usual your spelling and grammar were impeccable.
Keep writing,

I know not why you are not happy with it hun. I've only to guess it's just the way you feel about most of your work.
I personally found it rather good, even if it was somewhat saddening.

Can only say, I loved it, flows nicely and seems to be so heartfelt xxx
